Copper-64 has found many applications in positron emission tomography (PET). Its half-life allows to use it for dosimetric studies associated to copper-67 targeted radiotherapy in cancer treatment. The use of  64 Ni( p , n ) 64 Cu nuclear reaction is known to produce  64 Cu in large amount and with a high specific activity. In this study, targets were obtained by electroplating onto a gold backing and a typical target irradiation uses 200ߙnA, 17ߙMeV protons during 30ߙmin. After irradiation, pure copper-64 is obtained using only one chromatographic column. Nickel-64 is removed in a first elution step and cobalt isotopes in a second one. The extraction yield for copper-64 is 9±23% and nickel and cobalt impurities are under the detection limit. A recovery process of nickel-64 has also been developed.

One step purification process for no-carrier-added 64 Cu produced using enriched nickel target
